LA FINE DELLA SILICON VALLEY. ARCHITETTURA DEL CAPITALISMO DIGITALE

Sie fanden einen Angeschossenen im blutgetränkten Fluss.
Aber im Wilden Westen war das nicht ungefährlich ...
War der Verwundete wirklich nur ein Opfer?
Oder handelte es sich um einen skrupellosen Revolver-
mann, den seine Opfer bezwungen hatten?
Was, wenn er selbst nicht mehr wusste, wer er war?
Wenn der Fluss ihm seine Erinnerungen und seine
Identität gestohlen hatte?

Sie fanden einen Verwundeten im blutgetränkten Fluss. Im Wilden Westen war das nicht ungefährlich … War der Verwundete wirklich ein Opfer? Oder handelte es sich um einen skrupellosen Revolvermann, von Schwächeren bezwungen? Was, wenn er selbst nicht mehr wusste, wer er war? Wenn der Fluss ihm seine Erinnerungen und seine Identität gestohlen hatte?

»Fast überflüssig zu sagen, dass Meißners schriftstellerisches Können überragend ist … Meißner hat ein triviales Muster zu einer nicht überbietbaren literarischen Höhe gesteigert.« --- Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Die bipolare Nation

“Phenomenal…a jaw-dropping book.” —Jon Stewart, The Daily Show Named by The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Prospect magazine as a best book of the year, this “scrupulously reported” (The New Yorker) and “astonishing” (The Daily Telegraph, London) book rivets with its portrayal of how Apple allowed itself to become dependent on China for a huge percentage of its manufacturing, making it vulnerable and unwittingly laying the groundwork for the Asian superpower to rival the US in technological expertise. After struggling to build products on three continents, Apple turned to China’s seemingly endless supply of cheap labor. It soon deployed thousands of engineers, trained millions of workers, and invested hundreds of billions of dollars to create the most advanced global supply chain. These efforts fueled the iPhone’s dominance—but also laid the foundation for a powerful, state-supported Chinese electronics industry. What began as a business decision evolved into a cautionary tale of global trade, tech rivalry, and national security. Without intending to, Apple helped Beijing acquire technological influence that could now be weaponized—a central concern in the ongoing US-China tech war. Drawing on over two hundred interviews, Patrick McGee exposes never-before-reported details from Silicon Valley to Shenzhen: internal emails, secretive executive meetings, and overlooked voices inside the company’s China operations. You’ll meet the “Gang of Eight” executives tasked with appeasing Beijing, a Mormon missionary who launched Apple retail in China, and a veteran whose dreams of improving factory conditions were crushed by both Apple’s demands and Xi Jinping’s authoritarian crackdown. From Foxconn and Tim Cook to the Chinese Communist Party and Taiwan Semiconductor, this is a revelatory look at how Apple, in seeking efficiency, became entangled in the very politics it once claimed to challenge. For readers of Chip War, American Factory, and The Big Short, Apple in China is a searing examination of corporate power, Chinese nationalism, deglobalization, and the fragile relationship between Silicon Valley and the world’s rising superpower.

'Excellent, meticulously researched biography' - The Guardian 'Katie Prescott's account could hardly be bettered' - Literary Review 'My book of the year' - Martin Vander Weyer, The Spectator Revised and updated with a new foreword for the paperback edition. Named one of the Times and Sunday Times Best Books of the Year. A maverick outsider. An improbable life. An even more improbable death. Discover the real story of Mike Lynch, Britain's enigmatic tech billionaire. On the morning of 19 August 2024, the Bayesian yacht tragically sank off the coast of Sicily, taking with it the lives of Mike Lynch, his daughter and five others. Hours earlier, Lynch's associate and co-defendant in one of the biggest fraud cases in Silicon Valley history, Stephen Chamberlain, had been hit by a car in Cambridge and killed. The odds of these two deaths occurring together were estimated at four in one billion. Drawing on extensive research and exclusive access to key sources, award-winning Times journalist Katie Prescott forensically explores the life and death of this elusive maverick. Prescott guides us from Lynch's humble beginnings through his meteoric rise to CEO of Autonomy and beyond to a vicious legal battle lasting more than a decade following the 2011 sale of Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard for more than £11bn. A truly brilliant feat of investigative reporting, this is a tale where nothing is quite as it appears. 'Totally gripping . . . A real-life story that reads like a novel' - Sathnam Sanghera, bestselling author of Empireland 'If this was a film script no one would believe it' - Kamal Ahmed, journalist and author of Life and Times of a Very British Man 'A meticulously researched glimpse into the dark side of tech business in the UK . . . Riveting' - Parmy Olson, bestselling author of Supremacy

The Improbable Life & Death of a Tech Billionaire

The Curious Case of Mike Lynch

'An excellent look at what Palantir does, as well as a fascinating insight into the mind of its eccentric chief executive' TelegraphPalantir Technologies is the most interesting company in the world -&nbsp;and the most controversial.&nbsp;Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the U.S. government in the war on terrorism - an early investor was the CIA - Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the U.S. military, the National Health Service in England, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to healthcare to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the twenty-first century.&nbsp;Its billionaire CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he's a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir's work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp's close friend and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel.&nbsp;In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger is the first to tell the story of Alex Karp and Palantir from the beginning. Steinberger offers new biographical details and a rich psychological portrait of the man leading one of the world's most secretive companies. Full of revelations, this is an urgent and insightful book about technological power, the surveillance state and the future we all face.

The Philosopher in the Valley

A Financial Times Best Book of 2025A Forbes Best Business Book of 2025The US is the source of just about all the technologies that define modern life: personal computers, operating systems, smartphones, e-commerce, web browsers, email, search engines, social networks, electric cars and the rest. And most of the tech companies that created and monetized these technologies are also in the US.
In this book Mehran Gul, the winner of the Financial Times/McKinsey Bracken Bower Prize, asks: is that changing?Less than a decade ago, the sentiment towards Chinese tech compa­nies was often dismissive and complacent. Now the alarm bells are ringing. But as the commentariat pontificates how the US-China tech battle will play out, an equally interesting question to ask is: are there more Chinas out there? Places no one is taking seriously now that might turn out to be massively competitive sooner than we think.Samsung, a South Korean conglomerate, competes with Apple to be the world's largest manufacturer of smartphones. Arm, founded in the UK, develops chip designs that are used in more than 90 per cent of all mobile devices. Spotify, based in Sweden, is the most popular music streaming service in the world.That's not all. The world's most important semiconductor company, TSMC, is in Taiwan. The other most important company in the semiconductor industry, ASML, is in the Netherlands. Some of the world's best-known games like Minecraft, Candy Crushand Angry Birdscame from gaming studios in the Nordics. Nearly all the major electric battery manufacturers like CATL, LG, and SK On are in Asia.This is a story about technology and the places where it finds its way into the world. Silicon Valley has for half a century been unrivalled in spinning out technologies and fast-growing, high-value, billion-dollar-plus tech companies, the Apples, Facebooks, Googles of the world, that made it the centre for the most rapid creation of wealth in human history. Its secrets are spreading to more places.The geography of innovation is shifting. The world has a lot more high-value tech companies than ever before, growing a lot faster than ever before, in a lot more places than ever before. This is a book about these places.

Scam World

A shocking 90% of start-ups fail. Many of these failures are preventable, but you need to understand the causes and how to avoid them - both as an entrepreneur and an investor. From technology to the market, from leadership to money, there are numerous reasons why your start-up will fail. Bernie Bulkin - who has been at both sides of the investment table - guides you through the six major reasons why start-ups fail, and how to avoid them. Instead of accepting failure as inevitable, this book breaks down the main reasons why start-ups fail and how to turn them on their head. Whether you're a founder or an investor, if you're going to put in the time, money, and effort to ensure a company succeeds, you should go in with your eyes open. Bernie's common-sense approach offers the experience of a venture capitalist who has been there and done that. Leadership at all levels makes a difference. Using real-life examples, and applying behavioural economics to venture decision-making, Why Start-Ups Fail spotlights what founders most often lack, and shares the who, how, and why of making a start-up succeed and avoiding the traps blocking your path to commercial success.

Avoiding the traps on the path to commercial success

Why Start-Ups Fail

Warum wir jetzt handeln müssen, bevor der Überwachungsstaat Realität wirdDigitale Technologien haben die Vision von George Orwells „1984" zur realen Möglichkeit gemacht. KI, Gesichtserkennung und Big Data erlauben eine Kontrolle über Individuen, die noch vor wenigen Jahren undenkbar war. China hat diese Technologien zum Überwachungsstaat ausgebaut und exportiert sie entlang der digitalen Seidenstraße in dutzende Länder. In den USA ist nach dem 11. September 2001 eine Allianz aus Staat und Tech-Konzernen entstanden, die unter der Regierung Trump zur Abschiebungsmaschinerie wurde. Auch in Deutschland setzt die Polizei bereits Software des US-Unternehmens Palantir ein.Dr. David Karpa und Prof. Michael Rochlitz zeigen, wie Überwachungstechnologie unsere Freiheit bedroht und unter welchen Bedingungen Bürger auch in Deutschland bereit sind, staatliche Überwachung zu akzeptieren. In ihrer schonungslosen Analyse beantworten sie die zentralen Fragen: Wie verwundbar ist unsere eigene Demokratie – und was müssen Politik, Gesellschaft und jeder Einzelne tun, um sie zu schützen? Ein dringender Appell, bevor es zu spät ist. <ul><li>Warum wir jetzt handeln müssen, bevor der Überwachungsstaat Realität wird – konkrete Lösungen, um Freiheit und Demokratie im digitalen Zeitalter zu bewahren </li><li>Von Chinas Totalüberwachung über Russlands digitale Autokratie bis zur US-Datenallianz und warum auch Deutschland nicht vor einem digitalen Autoritarismus sicher ist</li><li>Eine schonungslose Analyse basierend auf internationalen Studien – die beiden Autoren sind führende Experten für politische Ökonomie und forschen im Bereich digitale Überwachung</li></ul>
